Unique Hotel
It is a very special hotel. Very unique you will never stay in such a place with so much history and so well kept. If you’re a bit of a claustrophobic, I would suggest you to take a Palazzo room rather than a cave room.

Great property and staff. Would suggest having some type of basic sundries and a mirror in bathroom with lights, tough to see when shaving or wife doing hair etc. Breakfast is amazing, location is perfect in the Sassi. Highly recommend!
